Volunteer medical office hours

Volunteer medical consultation hour STIL

For the medical consultation every Wednesday morning STIL looks for stress-resistant, socially skilled volunteers.

People without a residence permit cannot insure themselves against medical expenses, but they are entitled to medically necessary care. STIL helps them obtain that care. At our medical consultation hour every Wednesday morning from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. we make appointments for people with general practitioners, midwives, dentists and other care providers. We inform people about their rights and options, refer them and mediate in obtaining medical care.

In addition, in certain situations we do fundraising for medical expenses that are not reimbursed (dentist, glasses, prostheses, physiotherapy, etc.).

You work in a small close-knit team that collectively tackles the requests for help that come in during the consultation hour. The work can be tough because the people you work with are in a difficult position. It does give a lot of satisfaction if you succeed in helping someone further and you can count on the support of your colleagues.

You are asked:

• affinity with the target group;
• independent and honest;
• communicative and social;
• responsible;
• flexible and people-oriented attitude;
• firmly in the shoes;
• Available Wednesdays from 8.45 am to 2 pm minimum.
